Southern California residents block illegal immigrants. Turned buses around!
Re: Southern California residents block illegal immigrants. Turned buses around!
Our local area has a town that is very heavily Central and South American --- these people are here illegally.
About 4 years ago, a new high school (price to build it: Many millions of dollars) opened. Guess who the students are. What are we funding??? Send them all back, no questions asked. How much more of a burden are they going to be on our state, which is sort of broke last I heard??
Not specified who the 'sponsors" are but according to the map, New Jersey is getting quite a lot of them!
Our schools are overloaded, overcrowded and overburded and so is every single resource we have. We simply have no more room.
We also don't know "who" these kids are: they could be mental paitents, drug addicts, running dope, have connections to gangs (both known and unknown) be ill with a communicable disease or pregnant.
For all we know, they have been abducted or are runaways and maybe their parents are looking for them.
We don't have the moral right to do this.
Give them a meal, clean them up and send them home the next day. End of story.
